From Pilot to Production

Interview programme overview

Eighty percent of this shift is people, not technology. What is the AI use case in your organisation that has crossed from pilot into production, and what changed when it crossed?

Most B2B marketing organisations are running AI as a perpetual pilot. Market makers have crossed the pilot-to-production threshold on at least one use case, with named ownership, measured outcomes and an operating model that adapted to what AI actually changed. Followers are still calling things pilots two years in.

Audience: CMOs, VPs of Marketing, Heads of Marketing Operations, Heads of RevOps.

The most repeated finding in the previous programme was that the technology is the smaller part of the challenge. Adoption is the bigger part. The organisations moving fastest are not the ones with the biggest budgets, they are the ones who built the willingness to keep adapting. This conversation anchors the programme in something durable. It will still be true in eighteen months.
